CONVICTED BY The BABY.
A Remark able Case of Birthmarks
in Court.
From the Near York Times.

From the Near York Times.
FRANKLIN, Pa, Feb. 13.-SOme weeks
ago young woman named Scott, who
was soon to become a mother, appeared
before a Mercer county Justice of the
Peace and swore out warrant for the
arrest OF a young man named William
Bloodgood on charge Of assault and bat
terry. Bloodgood was arrested. The
young woman swore tBat two weeks pre-
viously the prisoner had come to her
house and, as she objected to his remain.
ing, he had choked her until Sue was al
most unconscious, and had twisted her
left wrist. almost dislOcatlng il. She
said the marks OF his fingers and thumb
were visible on her throat for several
days, and her wrist had remained crook
ed for some time. She had no witnesses
of the assault. BloOdgood admitted hav-
ing been at the young woman's house,
but denied the assault. The justice held
him, however, to appear at court.
Few persons believed that the girl had
been assaulted. and as she had no wit
nesses to prove her story Bloodgood's
discharge was expected as soon as court
met. The case was called at the last
term of Mercer court. The complainant
appeared, carrying ner three weeks old
baby. Her lawyer put her on the wit
ness 5Idnus one 6WUTb 10 having Deel
assaulted by the prisoner as she had
sworn before the Justiceiof the Peace, and
that she was the mother Of the child in
her arms. A physician corrobora ted the
fact of that relationship. The lawyer
then stated to the court that as the de-
tense would ask for acquittal on the
ground that there was no evidence OF any
assault having been committed, he
offered as evidence cOrroborative Of the
plaintiffs testimony the baby she had In
her arms. He removed the cnild's
wraps and carried it ITO the
Judge, and called his attention
TO it. The result was that the baby was
admitted 10 evidence against the Objec-
ton OF the defendants counsel. The
prosecuting lawyer took the infant to the
jury, and, uncOvering its throat, revealed
10 them the distinct marks of four fingers
on one side or 1t and the plain and un-
mlstakable impression OF "A thumb on the
other. After the remarkable birthma rks
had been examined by the jury the law
yer uncovered the baOy's left wrist. 1t
was twisted out ot shape and swollen. as
il IL had been suddenly wrenched. These
marks on the throat and the twisted wrist
corresponded exactly with the injuries
the baDy's mother swore, more than
month before II was born, TO having re-
ceived at the hands Of the prisoner Blood
good. After this startling and most eX-
traordinary evidence was presented tue
prosecution rested It's case. The prisoner
was convicted.
